Hi everyone! I got my new one s just yesterday and I've been noticing some issues.
First of all a huge problem with Wi-Fi: death grip! I had a desire s before, it also has the same issue but the difference was that it didn't loose the whole signal, just had it dropped a lot. My one s disconnects from Wi-Fi if I hold it landscape.
The other issue is with the screen. With low brightness I can see vertical stripes slightly darker than other parts of the screen. It seems to happen with grey images too.
There is also another issue, with headphones. No matter which ones (tried with monster and soundmagic). Listening to music and turning off or on the screen, I hear the audio crackling for a couple of seconds.
Software version is 1.78.161.2. It's Vodafone brand (Italy) with no more ota updates available.

The WiFi antenna is in the top part of the phone, I don't remember which corner. So when you put your hand over it our blocking the antenna. Just hold it differently.
As for the other problems, I must have a perfect device because nothing is wrong with it. T-Mobile branded.

For me the WiFi issues were solved with the 2.31 update but seeing as you're carrier locked that update might not come, as poster above says, I'venever had such audio problems so its probably a hardware defect covered under warranty. Request a replacement I think. Just make sure they give you the same chipset as what your device has now!
I have same problem with lcd panel like you, vertical and few horizontal stripes on low brightness. Pls everyone who read this thread, try download Bad pixel test and set brightness to the lowest position and try gray background in this app.

Hey guys, i got an idea for an interested dev. I dont have a android phone yet, but I've been lurkin around here for a while and have learned a lot from all you guys.
Now, i for one know people who go through others phones. Needless to say, it is annoying. I have an idea to con these guys out of there snooping.
Its a lock screen app that implicates both that we know already, the standard bar swiping one

and the combo one
I was thinking maybe we could get an app that let you swipe the bar, like if it was going to open it, but then act like if nothing happened. To actually unlock it, you would put the combo in invisibly, either by swiping through specific sectors, as if the screen were a grid.
This is my idea to you devs for a safer phone.
I like this idea. Would be a good April fools trick too.

hahaaha, i know right. just hope a dev is willing to do it.
Can't imagine it would be that hard since both items are already built.

Hmm well on cyanogenmod you can just hide the "dots" on the Pattern-lock. I use it currently. My current background is black, so that's why it's all black. It's just an extra security measure. Anyone without an android phone wouldn't really know what to do considering it doesn't even show the "Incorrect pattern" message (which you can turn on or off).
Note that this is the normal pattern lock with just everything hidden (except for the cyanogenmod message at the top, which can be turned off/changed to something else.) There's no slide-unlock then pattern-unlock, just pattern-unlock.

I have a small part on my back cover that has no paint on it just bare aluminum. When ever I use hedphones or a headset the plug rubs up against it and causes my phone to play music randomly, switch songs, and call the last person on my call log? Has anyone had a similar issue? It only just started happened recently, I got the phone at walmart on the 12th. Who should I contact about the issue? HTC, T-Mobile, WalMart? I really don't want to send my entire phone in just to have the back replaced.
Here's a picture of the area.

Not on mine but give HTC support a call and tell them and they will send you a new back cover.
Had this on my N1. It's because of the built-in controls on the HTC headphones. My bet is you are not using those and are using headphones that have no controls.
Look up the app called headset blocker and it will disable this function and you should be good to go.
I'm using the headset that came with the phone and tried juts normal earbuds and have the same issue. Thanks for the temporary fix ill try it out.

I haven't even bothered opening the headphones that come with the Sensation, so I'm going to assume they are the same as in the Nexus One.
The issue comes from the diffference in the plug, the one that comes with the N1 has 3 black rings on it, all "separating" everything. The standard stereo ones have 2 rings.
What I did, to solve my problem since stock headphones were got awful, I bought an adapter that adds play controls and a microphone to any headphones. Never had the issue since.
@ OP the same exact thing happens to me all the time i havent found a fix for it at all. it pisses me off because it constantly calls people and skips songs and a bunch of other whacky stuff if you figure it out be sure to post the fix
Hello,
I'm looking for an app that i had quite a long time ago, it had as option to have compatibility with older apps (meaning that apps that didn't go fullscreen on higher resolution devices, got upscaled to have the full screen covered).
Anyone know what app that was or has another app that can do the same?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming you have an Android, it should fit the screen regardless.
Yes i do have Android and no it doesn't, why would i be asking for it otherwise
What phone you have and what apps aren't fiting?
The Sensation, currently i have it with FF3 (Final Fantasy 3), 2 black borders on the side.
But older apps have this aswell (some just appear in a small screen with black area's in the bottom and side parts)
Like this with FF3:

Hmm.. this doesn't happen on my Droid 3 except on emulators, in which case it has to do with the original game having a specific resolution. Sorry I couldn't help
After searching some forums, i have finally found a post i made for a game that had this problem (Eternal Legacy HD).
The app is Spare Parts.
Thanks for trying to help tho!

Hi All
My Lcd screen is operating itself and typing itself in keyboard, its opening apps on itself.
This is happening just from yesterday,I didn't drop phone or no physical damage also.
I tried to reset the phone also, but its no use.
Does it happened to anyone here...please let me know what should be done

Go to a priest and have him exorcise your phone.
But seriously, something is wrong. Do you know how touchscreens work? If you don't look it up. You may be able to hypothesize a reason why.

hi all
my htc one x touchscreen is not working at bottom....just above the
touch buttons, touch buttons working perfectly....
and touch screen above 2cms of touch buttons is fine...
previously my touch screen was typing something itself in keyboard n now
it stopped n finally touch screen not working only above touch buttons(
2 cms only, remaing screen is fine )
is this hardware problem...do i need to replace touch screen.
i have done reset, still no use, it seems like hardware prblm...
please give solution to this
Yes I would go ahead and replace the screen. Just to forewarn you but the touchscreen and LCD are bonded together using some type of adhesive and most everyone who has tried to separate the two end of cracking the LCD. The solution to this as well as your problem would be to buy the Touchscreen and LCD already bonded together as a whole unit. I think I have seen units on eBay and alibaba for somewhere in the 80-100$ range.
No amount of resetting/reflashing your phone will cure a hardware problem.

Off hand, I can think of two areas to check. First look in your settings and insure that NFC is turned on. Second, do you have the original battery? If you have an aftermarket battery it may not have the NFC antennae built in.

Speculatively, if you have the standard battery which does say NFC on it. possibly it has lost continuity on the antennae under the battery wrapper paper. I do not know for certain which is which of the four contact pads on the battery. I would imagine they are magnetic loop in, out, ground, and plus. But which is which I could not say offhand. I looked it up once thinking I might just tape a wire loop onto the body of a 2300mAh battery I bought for air travel so I would not run out of juice while stuck on a flight.
The picture is just something I found in a bing search that shows the antennae under the wrapper I did not go to the page to see what this battery is being sold for. So, if the loop has continuity and NFC is turned on in the settings and it still does not pass a connection you might then assume something is awry on the circuit board.
